Just reading nunos comments on preparation for games now and began to realise how different it must be for the squad. Hardly had a rest then we finish and start seasons in empty stadia kicking off at all times, only their own voices to be heard, no accolades to respond to, or indeed jeers to spark them up. Then injuries occur and adaptions have to be made, not always successfully or acceptably.
We as fans have have settled into our armchairs and frustratingly grown to accept which ever media shows us the game with the overdubbed 'crowd noise ' or the atmosphere of a training ground and the sometime ill informed or biased of pundits reiterating what we can see for ourselves and apologising for any curse we may have heard (cos football fans never hear such language in the grounds) . And, then we as fans expect the same performances as normal. Brighton game as an example, we were all hurt, bewildered etc. And we vented it all on here. It must be soul destroying for nuno and the squad (I know poor souls), But perhaps we should cut them some slack and reading some of the comments re:- MGW and Cutrone on here below is an example. These are, to use the word 'unprecedented ' times and we have to find a way through it. So I'm saying a big thanks to Nuno and all the staff on field and off, for entertaining us giving us our hope along with our disappointment. I'm thinking of Raul and his commitment (a cracked cranium isn't let the team down) and Nunos hopes in Cutrone/ fabio. We all want that in truth, so get positive again appreciate the lads, the pack. COYW, up for the cup and a decent performance no matter what tonight.

Great post abbywolf, we have to trust Nuno's judgement. So let's all get behind whoever plays tonight and if it's Cutrone now's his second chance (not everyone gets one) to prove the doubters wrong.

Think the season will be suspended for at least a couple of weeks quite soon with so many Clubs contracting C.V.

Good post Abby, well done.

Agree, excellent post Abby. Particularly with 'we apologise for bad language' thing, drives me mad, sometimes even after the watershed! Not sure if Cutrone is available for tonight, anyone know? COYW.

Thank you abbywolf. The doubters can perhaps read and reflect?
